Kingdom’s Bloodline

At that moment, Qianzi and Russell raised their eyebrows together and looked at each other, unable to conceal the surprise in their hearts.

This guy, didn't he just...

Ricky held up another finger:

"But you have to understand that it's just a matter of reality. Whichever side gets there first, the other side is going to be in trouble, so we have to work together."

He looked quietly at the drill, then at Russell.

"Besides, this does not mean that we are on your boat. Whether I or my brothers, the inheritors outside the tower have their own creeds and purposes, and they have their own methods of survival, and they do not recognize anything that relies on power. Kind of bullshit theory, if Rumba or you think we can take advantage of our grievances with the stars to threaten us to stand in line..."

Ricky's tone was cold:

"Then you are making a mistake."

The masked man snorted, "Big mistake."

The lights in the tavern flickered again.

It reflected Ricky's serious expression.

Qianzi took a deep breath and smiled brightly: "I guess, this counts as 'happy cooperation'?"

Ricky stared at him for a while, then curled the corners of his mouth:

"That's it."

In the next second, all the mercenaries let out a sigh of relief and regained their vitality.

It was as if the leader's words revived the atmosphere.

"Then let's do it," Qianzi said joyfully, "Start with that prince."

At this moment, Thales screamed in his heart.

The Shield of Shadow, the Sword of Disaster, and King Charman formed an alliance.

The target was...himself.

This is not good.

Especially when someone is sitting right under their noses.

It doesn't work if you call the sky, but it doesn't work when you knock on the ground.

In the tavern, the three parties who were originally conflicted sat down to discuss the plan again.

"So, you guys want to find a prince who was in your hands, but then got out of control again," Ricky sighed, "Is it that difficult?"

Russell snorted.

"Is it that hard?" the ex-baron of Exeter repeated sarcastically.

"Over three months..."

Russell clenched his fists resentfully:

"For that broken prince, the Dark Room and the Secret Division fought on the border, causing many casualties."

"His Majesty Charmain's troops lost troops inside and outside the country, and they were disgraced and embarrassed."

"From Longxiao City, Qiyuan City to the Great Desert, everything is in chaos, and the soldiers are in chaos."

"Even the manpower of the Shadow Shield suffered heavy losses. They even had a safe stronghold in the desert, which was destroyed by orcs who appeared out of nowhere."

Qianzi smiled wryly upon hearing this.

Taylor's heart trembled.

For more than three months...

Russell crossed his arms and asked maliciously: "Now, do you still think it's that difficult?"

Ricky snorted and looked at Clay and the masked man.

"What we want is the prison of bones, or in other words, what we want is the people detained there," the masked man said calmly: "In terms of time, it is expected to start at dawn, and our people will enter with the 'my family' supply vehicle in prison."

Tampa, the tavern owner, groaned and lay prone on the table.

"Very well, let's see what we can do..." Qianzi scratched his chin.

"No," on the other hand, Russell flatly rejected the plan:

"That prince, Tiers Canxing has not been found yet, and once you break into the prison of bones, you will alarm the camp."

Thales groaned in his heart, but he had to cheer up, listened carefully to their discussion, and tried to find opportunities from it.

"You have to postpone the action for a day or two," Russell gritted his teeth:

"Until we find out the whereabouts of the prince, we should plan carefully and cooperate with each other to act one after the other."

But on the side of the sword of disaster, Clay shook his head.

"Impossible," Clay said without refusal, "We're ready to leave at dawn, unless we can force this boss to operate like a normal person for another day?"

Tampa shuddered, and quickly said, "Stop in, I'm fine.

I can definitely act well, as long as you let it go after the fact..."

But Russell cut him off.

"Prince Thales must be sent to Heisha, otherwise nothing will be discussed." Faced with this, he was very tough.

Clay tried to speak again, but the brat spoke.

"Everyone..."

"If we want to cooperate, then we must be considerate to each other," the representative of Shadow Shield persuaded the people on both sides in a good voice: "Especially now until dawn, there is still a long time, I think, we will soon There will be news of the prince."

Ricky grimaced.

"How to say?"

Qianzi showed a sly smile: "We have an insider. If the Saber Camp knows the whereabouts of the prince, we will know immediately."

"Inside?" Ricky frowned:

"You'd better be more specific, we don't want to bet such a big move on unclear promises."

Qianzi exhaled and looked at the mercenaries around the tavern.

But Ricky had absolutely no intention of evacuating his subordinates.

In the end, Qianzi had no choice but to raise his eyebrows, his gaze lowered his voice mysteriously, and revealed the secret:

"We have eyes and ears in Williams' 'geek squad.'"

As soon as this statement came out, the people around were startled.

Even Thales was taken aback.

"The group of 'freaks' who came out of the prison of bones?"

The masked man's tone was full of doubts: "Those dregs...reliable?"

The brazener shrugged.

"Of course it is reliable. Our insider is one of Williams' most trusted captains. There is no problem with the news channel."

Ricky raised his eyebrows: "Williams' people...can ensure his loyalty?"

Qianzi took two steps, showing a cold smile.

"In fact, we don't need his loyalty, because he still relies on us to make a fortune and treat his wife and daughter's genetic terminal illness. We only need his loyalty to his family."

"Are you relying on this to blackmail him?"

Russell frowned and said, "Once he gets out of control..."

The drill stretched out a finger and waved it in the air.

"Of course it's more than that," Qianzi said coldly, "you know, it would cost a lot of money for us to secretly poison his wife and daughter on a regular basis."

The meaning contained in these words made everyone feel cold.

"Despicable." The masked man commented disdainfully.

The brazener owed his body.

"Thank you," he said without shame, "This is a compliment to us."

Thales sighed in his heart: From the details of the plan to the action, they spoke out without any concealment...

That means...

They are not going to let these innocent people go away.

Thales glanced at Quick Rope beside him with an innocent face, and shook his head.

Maybe, not so innocent.

Ricky coughed, drawing everyone's attention.

"So, you rely on this to wait for news from the prince?"

The brazener blinked.

Ricky looked at him and smiled.

"Well, we have another inside line."

Qianzi's eyes lit up: "Oh?"

"More reliable than yours," Ricky said, looking at the masked man beside him:

"A star noble, a rookie under the command of the Earl of Wing Fort. He is good at combat and leads the army alone. He is deeply trusted."

The brazener's face changed.

"Wow, a new nobleman," he took a deep breath, unable to hide his excitement, "after the bloody year...that's really beyond our reach."

But Qianzi then cautiously asked: "Forgive me, if he is a star person, then his reliability and loyalty..."

This time, Marina stood up.

She glanced at the brat with her usual disdain.

"There is no need to doubt his loyalty."

"That's not necessarily the case," Qianzi snorted coldly, "I just revealed our secret, and do you also need..."

But before he finished speaking, Marina interrupted angrily: "No need!"

The girl in red with two swords gritted her teeth and said:

"He's my fiancé...at least he was."

Qianzi's eye sockets suddenly widened.

Even Thales was taken aback.

etc.

fiancé.

If Marina is the fiancée of a star noble, that means...

But before he could think carefully, the masked man said coldly: "Is this enough?"

"Love and marriage are far more reliable than the despicable means you use to control people's hearts."

Qianzi nodded if he realized something.

"May I venture to ask your name?"

Marina paused slightly.

She looked at Ricky.

"You have nothing to hide about the past, good girl," Ricky nodded at him, releasing a good-natured smile:

"You've been reborn and live only for yourself."

Marina seemed to have gained some strength from the other party's words, took a deep breath, turned her head, and held her head high. .

"I'm Marina." At this moment, the girl in red exuded a strange sense of seriousness: "Marina Norfolk."

Thales frowned, feeling unfamiliar with this surname.

But others are different.

"Wait, Norfolk, this last name..." Qianzi frowned, remembering something.

He didn't have to be confused for long.

"Eighteen years ago, you despicably assassinated the Duke of Xinghu, John Canxing, in Sodara City," Marina trembled, grasped her double swords, stared at the shadowy assassin in front of her, and said the truth coldly: "Then Put the blame on his bodyguard, my uncle, Seb Norfolk."

John Canstar!

Thales trembled slightly.

That is……

The Star God of War.

The image of the person related to the Fortress Flower and the veteran Genard appeared before his eyes.

Qianzi looked at the girl in red in disbelief.

"Because of this crime of treason, my grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, brother... almost everyone in the Norfolk family was punished by the newly crowned King Kessel V in that year. capital punishment."

Marina's voice trembled.

But she immediately clenched her teeth, and with unimaginable tenacity, bit out the following words: "Except for me."

"The last Norfolk."

There was a moment of silence in the tavern.

With an unspeakable expression, Qianzi nodded:

"Now, I know why you are so angry with me."

Sonny patted Marina on the shoulder and pulled her aside, trembling.

The brat fell silent, and Russell looked at this and that, but was also silent.

In the tavern, the only sound left was the breathing of the mercenaries.

Ricky sighed.

"Very good, so now we have two insiders, and I will give orders immediately." He waved his hand, and the masked man nodded immediately.

"But before that..."

Ricky changed the subject.

Following the change in his tone, there was also his gaze.

"It's a coincidence to say..."

In the next second, Ricky's eyes turned slightly.

He turned everyone's attention to the two guests who hadn't spoken for a long time.

"The two 'Dante's Great Swords' over there, after listening to it for so long, they should have some reaction?"

At that moment, Thales was shocked!

Quick Rope also froze.

Dante's great sword.

It's over.

He still remembers!

In the tavern, the brat looked at them with secret glances, Russell frowned and looked at the two mercilessly, Clay's observation was meticulous and cautious, and the masked man emitted a faint cold light from his eyes, which made Tai Ernes shuddered.

The two princes knew that their luck was over.

From this moment on, the two could no longer pretend to be dead.

So they straightened up stiffly, bit by bit, inch by inch, and slowly turned toward Ricky.

It's like having rusty old gears in your body.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking, but..."

Ricky raised two fingers, pointed at the two, and said indifferently: "You didn't just appear here by coincidence, did you?"
